A special #healthpolicyvalentine for all you health policy nerds out there: How do I love thee, Medicaid? Let me count the ways. I love thee to the depth, breadth, and height of your comprehensive coverage.I love thee 2 million times over because you cover as many Georgians. I love thee freely, as you allow seniors to age in their homes. I love thee purely, as you keep Georgia's children healthy and whole. I love thee with the same passion that people with disabilities are able to seek employment and education with your supportI love thee with a love I'll never lose in the hopes that we never lose you.
